Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 63

The emperor sighed and said: "The palace is yours, what can I say if you want to change it? The construction of this small Taihu Lake is just a thought for your mother and concubine. Your mother and concubine followed me to the south of the Yangtze River, and the two of us lived on the Taihu Lake." Facing the beautiful scenery, I lingered and forgot to return, and I was willing to return to Beijing after several urgings!"

"Mother..."

Yuan Zhaohong lowered his head with eyes circled, the emperor also had a mournful expression on his face, and the father and son were relatively speechless.

The eldest prince stepped forward at the right time, bowed his body and bowed, and said, "Father, take care! This place is right in front of the wind, so it's not suitable to stand for a long time, why don't you go to the pavilion?"

The emperor looked at the eldest prince and nodded slightly, and said: "The spring breeze is soft at this time, so it's okay. I felt a little unwell a few days ago, and I took the pills, and it's much better!"

Several princes bowed together and said: "Father, Kangtai, is the luck of all people, the luck of sons and ministers! May the father live forever!"

The emperor laughed: "Okay! Today is sunny and warm. The eldest brother held a flower party and invited many guests and friends. It just so happened that I also had half a day of leisure, so I came here with the empress to see how happy you are!"

The queen smiled and said, "Your majesty, the concubine is right, right? Although the imperial garden in our palace is nice, it is not as popular as this place. The imperial doctor also said that the emperor should often go to places with many people and beautiful scenery. You see The spring is bright and beautiful in this garden, and thousands of flowers are blooming, how nice is it?"

The emperor smiled and nodded: "That's right, everyone is so happy today, let's take a look around and have a good time!"

The eldest prince Yuan Ji thanked the emperor on behalf of his brothers, and Yuan Zhao led the way along the willow embankment and flower path by the lake, leading the emperor and empress to the viewing pavilion, but no one went up the rockery platform.

Walking slowly while enjoying the flowers and scenery, the emperor summoned King Shou to ask questions, saw Zheng Jingyan in the crowd, and nodded to him with a smile.

After walking about [-] steps, the emperor suddenly heard the clear and pleasant sound of the piano, and the emperor's expression was lifted: "The sound of the piano is very elegant in the south of the Yangtze River, very similar to the piece that Min'er composed on Taihu Lake back then! "

Everyone knew that the Min'er that Emperor Man said in a doting tone was Xu Minyu, the biological mother of the Fourth Prince Yuan Zhao.

Xu Minyu was elected to the palace at the same time as the current empress Yu, and the two gave birth successively. Xu Minyu was named Concubine Shu, and Yu was named Concubine Jing. The imperial concubine, Yuan Zhao returned to Concubine Jing's palace to be raised with the fifth prince. The fifth prince was born in the same year and the same month as Yuan Zhao, only a few days apart. Concubine Jing regarded Yuan Zhao as her own, and she would rather wrong the fifth prince Yuan Zhao refused to treat Yuan Zhao in the slightest. When he was a child, Yuan Zhao often beat the fifth prince Yuan Yang until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. Concubine Jing never complained to the emperor once. After that, the Yu family was promoted to the position of the main palace.

At this time, Empress Yu was still magnanimous and calm. She was already used to the emperor's remembrance of the imperial concubine Xu Minyu. If the emperor was sad because of this, she had to persuade him gently to prevent him from being too obsessed with the past.

"This string music is indeed elegant, beautiful and fascinating. I think it was specially prepared by the fourth prince for the emperor, right? There is both Little Taihu Lake and Jiangnan music rhyme, so it looks like our husband and wife took a trip to the south of the Yangtze River with our children... Your majesty, this concubine is also very happy!"

The queen spoke softly, and the emperor listened for a while, then turned his head to look for the fifth prince, and asked with a smile: "Little Wu, is this like the piece you tried out in Shaohua Palace that day?"

The fifth prince, Yuan Yang, was gentle and elegant, stepped forward and bowed to answer: "I want to tell my father: it is the song "Looking for Jiangnan"!" The husband and wife made it specially for the father and mother, and it will be presented to the father and mother for viewing in a few days!"

The emperor nodded: "Then it is Princess Wei who is playing the piano now?"

"Yes, the first piece played by Yuefen——Ode to Taihu Lake. This is Yuefen's composition and lyrics!"

"Good! Good! Concubine Wei deserves to come from a scholarly family. She is knowledgeable and sensible, and her talent is above all princesses!"

Yuan Yang thanked En on behalf of his wife: "Thank you, father, for your compliment!"

The empress was touched and said: "The music was originally composed by Xiao Wuer and the fifth daughter-in-law to honor the emperor! What a good boy! Knowing that your father has remembered the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River for many years, but because of the busy government affairs, he couldn't take the time to go to play, so he made a special trip. It’s hard for you and your husband to have filial piety for singing and dancing like this! How is the peony garden in Prince Wei’s mansion? Are all the peonies blooming?”

Yuan Yang said: "Report to my mother: more than [-] varieties and tens of thousands of peonies in the peony garden are already budding, and the garden will be opened later this month!"

The queen looked at the emperor and said, "The end of this month? February [-]th is Xiao Wu'er's birthday!"

The emperor pondered for a while, and said to Yuan Yang: "Then organize the birthday banquet carefully. You just open your peony garden, and the palace will arrange the flowers for the banquet!"

Holding the queen's hand, she walked two steps forward, then turned around and added: "When the time comes, Zhen and your mother, come together and watch the song and dance you choreographed!"

Yuan Yang knelt down and kowtowed happily: the latter sentence is what he really wants!

In the past ten years, the emperor has never entered any prince's mansion. Apart from his weakening physique and unwillingness to move around more, for some reason, he also does not want to show special affection to any prince.

But this time, he came to King Qin's mansion for the first time, and gave King Qin a great deal of face. The queen played a great role in this, and it can be said that he contributed a lot, but the queen is willing to make wedding clothes for others, only hoping that Yuan Zhao will get Benefits, but don't you plan for your own fifth prince?
Of course not, except that the emperor may not have bothered to think about it, everyone has seen that the queen's move is extremely clever. She persuaded the emperor to come to the Qin Palace, but she used the situation to find a close father for the fifth prince Yuan Yang. Royal opportunity!

The emperor and his vassals secretly discussed the establishment of the crown prince, which was already guessed by the princes. However, the more the time was like this, the more the emperor ignored the princes and refused to let them approach him. Even if the princes wanted to show off, they couldn't find a chance In this extraordinary period, to be favored by the emperor and allowed to serve the emperor is the dream of every prince!
Shouwang Yuan Cong followed behind the emperor's brother and wife, without saying a word. He had already seen the expressions of all the nephews in his eyes, and naturally he did not miss the flash of resentment and unwillingness in Yuan Zhao's eyes.

The emperor came suddenly, and Yuan Zhao should be happy to get this honor for no reason, but he was not prepared for it because he didn't know it in advance—the emperor's physique was not good, and his diet could not be neglected, there was no special tea and tea for him Food, he will not stay for the banquet, and the soup and medicine that must be eaten every day, the Qin Palace can't get it out!
Therefore, Yuan Zhao can only be excited in vain. At most, the father will walk through the garden of his Prince Qin's mansion. After listening to the piece played by Princess Wei, he will leave soon!

At this moment, Yuan Zhao felt that he was still as stupid as he was when he was a child, and that he was easily used by others, and most of the time he would not even let him know the warning signs!

It's a pity that before he was 12 years old, he still respected, loved and protected that person like his own mother, and he didn't even realize that he was being spoiled and killed by her in an invisible way!
Fortunately, he woke up in time, otherwise he wouldn't know what he would have become. I'm afraid that his father hates iron for being weak, and would not even want to look at him any more!

Yuan Zhao raised his head again, and his face had regained his composure. Together with the other princes, he followed his father and queen, and walked slowly along the willow embankment by the lakeside, where the emerald green screen was like smoke, and walked towards the Guanjing Pavilion. .

At this moment, the order in the viewing pavilion is in good order. Princess Wei is sitting on the viewing platform and playing the piano with a smile to cheer for the emperor. , After getting closer, he knelt down and paid homage.

But no one noticed that Princess Qin and Mrs. Rong Pinghou had disappeared.

When Princess Wei's zither sounded, Xia Yiqing was still watching from the railing on the second floor, not because she liked the slow and gorgeous sound of Princess Wei's zither, but because she didn't like crowds, seeing the ladies heard about the emperor and empress When she arrived, everyone swarmed downstairs, so she had no choice but to retreat and let others go down first. The emperor is not a star, so if he catches up, can he still get his imperial pen to sign his name as a souvenir?
Unexpectedly, her leisurely and calm expression fell into the eyes of Princess Qin Xu Ningzhen. The latter's frowning eyebrows suddenly relaxed, and the eyes full of anxiety and anger suddenly glowed with joy and expectation.

Xia Yiqing was dragged to a corner of the second floor by Xu Ningzhen, covered by the screen, Xu Ningzhen didn't have time to explain anything to Xia Yiqing in detail, so he just said eagerly:
"Cousin, listen to me carefully. Let's make a long story short: Since you and Ah Yan are husband and wife, you should know that our prince and Ah Yan are cousins. Both of them are prosperous and both are prosperous. But you and I, Of course we want to live with them in honor and disgrace! Wei Wang and Qin Wang are brothers on the surface, but in fact they have long been at odds! It is a surprise that the emperor suddenly came to the Qin palace today, but you see, Wei Wang and his wife made such a move in public, the emperor Their hearts have been attracted by them, I am afraid that they have forgotten that this is the Qin Palace! They are too much? We have to think of a way, we can't just let them take over the host and get what we want! The emperor brought the emperor with him when he was young. The imperial concubine traveled to the south of the Yangtze River. Both husband and wife love the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River, especially the music in the south of the Yangtze River. The imperial concubine once composed a song "Ode to Taihu Lake" on Taihu Lake, but unfortunately it was not handed down... You are also from the south of the Yangtze River, Ah Zhao Saying that you are versatile, do you feel familiar with Princess Wei's song after listening to it? Can you make a song to complement her and suppress her?"

Xu Ningzhen spoke urgently and quickly, and Xia Yiqing could hear a black line hanging from the forehead: Although she didn't understand it very well, one thing was very clear - she bore the name of Mrs. Rong Pinghou, and was killed by Qin Qin. The concubine took it for granted as her teammate, and she couldn't help but be drawn into King Qin's camp!
